Description

Franz Joseph I gold Proof 100 Corona 1910 PR64 Ultra Cameo
NGC, Vienna mint, KM2819. Mintage: 3,074 (business strike +
proofs). A low-mintage series that is seldom encountered in a Proof
format, this exceptional selection features the iconic portrait of
Emperor Franz Joseph, sheathed in a layer of frost, and surrounded
by deeply reflective mirrors. The reverse is equally engaging, with
pinpoint detailing noted throughout the imperial eagle design. The
presence of fine wisps and a milk spot or two are likely all that
prevent the Gem designation. An altogether winsome selection
that deserves a prominent position in its next collection, sure to
attract great attention from advanced collectors of European gold.
